"After months of speculation, it was announced during Friday's Nintendo Direct that Dragon Quest VII will be the next entry in the long-running JRPG series to get a facelift; it's coming to both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined will be released February 5, 2026, and preorders begin today on the Nintendo eShop. Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined is a full-scale remake of the classic 2000 PlayStation title, looking very similar to Dragon Quest XI with updated visuals."
"The game follows the story of a young hero from the peaceful island of Estard, who--along with his friends Kiefer and Maribel--discovers ancient ruins that unlock the ability to travel to lost continents sealed away in the past. As players journey through time to these forgotten lands, they must resolve the tragedies that led to their destruction and restore them to the present, gradually rebuilding the world piece by piece."
"It was 10 years ago, during the 2015 Nintendo Direct, that Dragon Quest VII was announced to be coming outside Japan for Nintendo 3DS, with the new subtitle Fragments of the Forgotten Past. The 3DS remake is an abridged version, as much of the content from the original was cut, such as the intro, to shorten the length of the game."
Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined will launch February 5, 2026 on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, with preorders available on the Nintendo eShop. The game is a full-scale remake of the 2000 PlayStation title, featuring visuals similar to Dragon Quest XI. The story follows a young hero from Estard and allies Kiefer and Maribel who discover ruins that enable travel to lost, sealed continents. Players travel through time to resolve past tragedies and restore those lands to the present, rebuilding the world piece by piece. A 2015 3DS remake titled Fragments of the Forgotten Past was an abridged version with content cuts. Square Enix is concurrently progressing the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy for Switch 2, including completion of the final part's scenario in early 2025.
